I will for sure be going to see this movie. I like Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. If this is the last Batman movie of this version I am curious as to how long it will be until another live-action version of Batman movies will come out. I would like to see The Ventriloquist and Scarface in a live-action movie version of Batman.


For me, it's bitter-sweet that this is the last of Nolan's Batman trilogy. I enjoy the tone of the series and how "realistic" he has made it. Dark Knight was not just a great comic book movie, but one of the best movies that year...period.

The only disappointment, if you could call it that, is Christian Bale's portrayal of Batman. I wish Michael Keaton had the chance to be this type of Batman. The 1989 version was very good, yet campy. Keaton is still my favorite. That may be because he was the first live-action Batman I remember seeing on tv. Adam West doesn't count, in my opinion.

I feel Keaton's Batman would have made this trilogy virtually perfect. I did like Bale in Begins, but the overdramatic deep voice he had in Dark Knight was noticeable and distracting...although it was easily overlooked due to Ledger's performance and the plot itself. Hopefully he tones that down (the deep voice) a notch in this one.

I am excited for this one. Should be the darkest of the three...especially if you throw in Bat's broken back, Gordon's fading health, Bane, etc.

I think Heath Ledger's performance is overblown by his death.

I thought the Batman movies recently were good, not great. Hopefully this one changes my views. As an avid comic book fan as a kid (mostly Marvel) I've been waiting on that one movie to really break through on the big screen. Havens seen it yet.

That being said (and removing my critical eye) I have THOROUGHLY enjoyed the hero films. Can't wait to see Captain America on Saturday. He's probably my favorite hero of all time.

Ledger's performance was nothing short of spectacular and it has nothing to do with his death. I don't think there was a single performance by Ledger other than TDK that I liked, even a little. And it's not like TDK was his movie. No, his perfoance as Joker is just that damn good.

I wouldnt sell him short, that was an amazing performance. If you hadnt known he was playing the joker beforehand, not one person would have ever gussed that was Ledger. He was completely and totally lost and immersed in the role.

Forgot to mention that my boyfriend saw the batmobile being carried up to Toronto on I-65 N (between Nashville and Louisville) a couple weeks ago. He's got a picture, but it's on facebook, so I can't access it right now.

Is she really wearing just the eye piece? Lame.

I hope not. It's just not Catwoman without the Cat mask. People are saying that this is just "Selina Kyle" and not Catwoman yet, but who knows. Looks like the full costume to me.
